Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field with $q=p^{e}$ elements, where $p$ is a prime number and $e \geq 1$ is an integer. In this paper, by means of generalized Reed-Solomon (GRS) codes, we construct two new classes of quantum…

The three electromagnetic form factors of the $\Delta(1232)$ resonance, $G^*_M(q^2)$, $G^*_E(q^2)$, and $G^*_C(q^2)$ are obtained in the space-like region using a Dual Resonance Model realization of QCD in the large $N_c$ limit…

We establish dimensional thresholds for dot product sets associated with compact subsets of translated paraboloids. Specifically, we prove that when the dimension of such a subset exceeds $ \frac{5}{4} = \frac{3}{2} - \frac{1}{4} $ in…

The Erd\H{o}s distance problem concerns the least number of distinct distances that can be determined by $N$ points in the plane. The integer lattice with $N$ points is known as \textit{near-optimal}, as it spans $\Theta(N/\sqrt{\log(N)})$…

Let P_1 and P_2 be two sets of points in the plane, so that P_1 is contained in a line L_1, P_2 is contained in a line L_2, and L_1 and L_2 are neither parallel nor orthogonal. Then the number of distinct distances determined by the pairs…

Consider a form $g(x_1,...,x_s)$ of degree $d$, having coefficients in the completion $F_q((1/t))$ of the field of fractions $F_q(t)$ associated to the finite field $F_q$. We establish that whenever $s>d^2$, then the form $g$ takes…

Given a bounded domain $\Omega \subset {\Bbb R}^d$ with positive measure and a finite set $A=\{a^1, a^2, \dots, a^d\}$, we say that the set ${\mathcal E}(A)={\{e^{2 \pi i x \cdot a^j}\}}_{a^j \in A}$ is a complete exponential system if for…

We study closed sets $F \subset {\mathbb R}^d$ whose distance function $d_F:= {\rm dist}\,(\cdot,F)$ is DC (i.e., is the difference of two convex functions on ${\mathbb R}^d$). Our main result asserts that if $F \subset {\mathbb R}^2$ is a…

We study the number of the vectors determined by two sets in d-dimensional vector spaces over finite fields. We observe that the lower bound of cardinality for the set of vectors can be given in view of an additive energy or the decay of…

First steps are taken in a project to construct a general class of conformal and perhaps, eventually, non-conformal quantum field theories of (n-1)-dimensional extended objects in a d=2n dimensional conformal space-time manifold M. The…

We study the extension estimates for paraboloids in d-dimensional vector spaces over finite fields F_q with q elements. We use the connection between L^2 based restriction estimates and L^p\to L^r extension estimates for paraboloids. As a…

Let $d\geq2$ be an integer. Denote by $E_d$ and $E'_{d}$ the hyperelliptic curves over $\mathbb{F}_q$ given by $$E_d: y^2=x^d+ax+b~~~ \text{and} ~~~E'_d: y^2=x^d+ax^{d-1}+b,$$ respectively. We explicitly find the number of…

We prove that the finite field Fourier extension operator for the paraboloid is bounded from $L^2\to L^r$ for $r\geq \frac{2d+4}{d}$ in even dimensions $d\ge 8$, which is the optimal $L^2$ estimate. For $d=6$ we obtain the optimal range $r>…

In this paper we consider a two-parameter family {dGWp,q}p,q of Gromov- Wasserstein distances between metric measure spaces. By exploiting a suitable interaction between specific values of the parameters p and q and the metric of the…

In the setting of a metric space equipped with a doubling measure that supports a Poincar\'e inequality, we show that a set $E$ is of finite perimeter if and only if $\mathcal H(\partial^1 I_E)<\infty$, that is, if and only if the…

We consider the problem of finding $A_2(n,\{d_1,d_2\})$ defined as the maximal size of a binary (non-linear) code of length $n$ with two distances $d_1$ and $d_2$. Binary codes with distances $d$ and $d+2$ of size…

Let $X$ be an $n$--element finite set, $0<k\leq n/2$ an integer. Suppose that $\{A_1,A_2\} $ and $\{B_1,B_2\} $ are pairs of disjoint $k$-element subsets of $X$ (that is, $|A_1|=|A_2|=|B_1|=|B_2|=k$, $A_1\cap A_2=\emptyset$, $B_1\cap…

The famous Erd\H{o}s distinct distances problem asks the following: how many distinct distances must exist between a set of $n$ points in the plane? There are many generalisations of this question that ask one to consider different spaces…

For $n\in \mathbb{N}$ consider the $n$-dimensional hypercube as equal to the vector space $\mathbb{F}_2^n$, where $\mathbb{F}_2$ is the field of size two. Endow $\mathbb{F}_2^n$ with the Hamming metric, i.e., with the metric induced by the…

In this paper we prove some results on sum-product estimates over arbitrary finite fields. More precisely, we show that for sufficiently small sets $A\subset \mathbb{F}_q$ we have \[|(A-A)^2+(A-A)^2|\gg |A|^{1+\frac{1}{21}}.\] This can be…
